    Transitions, Chapter 5: The Urgency of Israel and Palestine
    Oct 17 2023
    Episode 126: "Transitions, Chapter 5: The Urgency of Israel and Palestine" JDK dedicates this episode to providing some historical context for the current crisis in the Middle East, in an effort to highlight all the problematic elements of history, myth, bigotry, and fear-based beliefs that exist on many sides of the seemingly perpetual conflict. What can be done to shift away from the crisis, without needlessly demonizing everyone in either Israel or Palestine in the process? JDK calls for getting comfortable with the discomfort of historical truths as a starting point - something that can help us pause and consider before engaging in (or supporting) activities that may make suffering even worse for everyone involved.

    Aug 14 2023
    Episode 121: "Projecting about 'Socialism' - Just Stop It Already" Following up on the feedback he received from last week, JDK digs into all the ways in which commentators on all sides of the political spectrum misunderstand the idea of Socialism, and how they erroneously use the term as both a slur and as a target for emulation or condemnation. Bringing us back to the core focus of respecting the integrity and value of every human being, JDK posits a full-throated call to a decidedly different focus, no matter where we stand on the political and social spectrums.
